Entertainment – Tup Dugg: Raw Truths from the Streets to the World Stage
Introduction Born and bred in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, and now based in India, Tup Dugg (Tonu Kokpa) is a Nigerian Rap/Grime artist whose music is his escape, his language, and his purpose. He delivers raw, versatile, and ever-evolving sound. About Me My name is Tsk, known on the mic as Tup Dugg. Hailing from Port Harcourt, Nigeria, music has always been my escape and purpose. I’m obsessed with the craft, striving to create music that moves people and speaks truths. Now based in India, I’ve sharpened my sound, blending hard rap, trap soul, and Afro-urban bounce, delivering every line with raw purpose. Musical Journey My musical journey started in school, initially to gain confidence among peers. I’ve been making music since then, evolving from wanting to “be cool” to developing a deep passion for Rap. Now based in India, I’ve honed my craft, studying flows and production, and pushing my pen game to new levels, reflecting my versatile and global sound. Signature Style My style is raw, gritty, and straight from the trenches. I tell the truth through my music, drawing from real-life experiences of pain to power. My bold delivery and street-coded flow combine heavy rap energy with Afro-urban bounce. I don’t sugarcoat or play roles—what you hear is the unfiltered, unapologetic, real Dugg sound. Notable Achievements One of my proudest moments was releasing my debut EP, “Dugg Business,” which stamped my name in the underground scene with versatile tracks like “Off Am,” “Dugg Freestyle,” and “Bonjour.” I also dropped impactful singles like “Locked In,” which represents my current focus and control. From gaining streams and building a fanbase from Nigeria to India, I’ve made my mark as an independent artist with a global mindset, performing for diverse audiences and collaborating across borders while staying true to my voice. Existing Projects Singles: “Locked In,” “Off Am” EP – Dugg Business: “Off Am,” “Dugg Freestyle,” “Roller Chick,” “Bonjour,” “Tz Love” Future Plans for My Brand I’m building a brand and a movement. My plans include consistent single drops with strong visuals, releasing a second EP or mixtape, collaborating with artists in Nigeria, India, and the UK, developing a full visual identity, performing at live shows, launching Dugg Season merchandise, building a community of supporters, and sharing behind-the-scenes content. Eventually, I aim to launch a platform to support other raw talents. Influences and Inspirations My artistic influences are a mix of grit, melody, and storytelling. I grew up listening to Lil Wayne, Burna Boy, Drake, Skepta, and Odumodublack, who taught me to own my sound and speak my truth. Their energy, pen game, and confidence shaped my approach, though my delivery remains original—my story is uniquely mine. Discography I’m Tup Dugg, and my music reflects everything I’ve seen and survived, documenting the hustle, pain, wins, and reality of my life. Every track is a chapter: “Locked In” (2025): My latest single, representing focus, discipline, and tunnel vision—real talk over a cold beat. “Off Am” (2025): A raw, aggressive track born from a darker place, pure expression without filters. “Dugg Business” EP (2025): My debut statement, featuring 5 tracks (“Off Am,” “Dugg Freestyle,” “Roller Chick,” “Bonjour,” “Tz Love”) that showcase different sides of my mindset.

Entertainment – TELMAN’s “MOOV DIFFERENT” Is Here — Welcome to the RADARMan Era
Nigerian rap trailblazer and RADARCharts’ official ambassador TELMAN returns with a striking new single titled “MOOV DIFFERENT”—a genre-bending Afro-Drill statement that signals the start of his most defining artistic chapter yet. This isn’t just a comeback. It’s a declaration. Following the viral impact of his gospel-drill anthem “Awesome God” in 2024, TELMAN now reintroduces himself under a bold new identity: The RADARMan—a symbol of creative evolution, spiritual alignment, and visionary thinking. Released under RADARMusic and managed by Royal Empire Management, “MOOV DIFFERENT” sets a powerful tone for what’s to come. The Sound: Afro-Fusion Meets Drill Realness Built on a smooth yet gritty production bed, “MOOV DIFFERENT” blends the street energy of UK Drill with the emotional resonance of Afro-fusion. TELMAN floats effortlessly through laidback percussions and bass-heavy textures, delivering melodic cadences and sharp storytelling with a tone that’s both reflective and quietly confident. Think NSG meets Odumodublvck—with a spiritual twist. His lyrical finesse shines through Afro-laced lingo and street-smart UK slang, serving up a message rooted in personal growth, silent elevation, and the art of moving with intention. It’s music for the ones walking in purpose—even when no one’s watching. Key Themes: Growth, Stillness, and Self-Belief At its core, “MOOV DIFFERENT” speaks to every creative, dreamer, and hustler who chooses the high road over the loud one. TELMAN doesn’t chase virality—he builds legacy. His lyrics reflect a season of discipline, quiet wins, and spiritual recalibration. Lines like “I no dey talk too much, I dey move different…” speak directly to a generation choosing value over volume. Cultural Pulse: A Movement in Motion With over 6 million+ streams, a Shazam count north of 112K, and an ever-expanding fanbase stretching from Nigeria to the UK, South Africa, and the U.S., TELMAN is no longer just an artist to watch—he’s a cultural force in formation. As the face of RADARCharts’ creative movement, he embodies the platform’s mission: to spotlight next-gen talent built on substance, strategy, and global vision. “MOOV DIFFERENT” isn’t just a track—it’s an entry point into TELMAN’s next era, a soundscape crafted for playlists, reels, underground freestyles, and everything in between. Stream Now: The RADARMan Has Arrived “MOOV DIFFERENT” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
